RENAISSANCE
Dear Readers,
Guess who’s
back…back again!
Well, it’s
been interesting, has it not? And to be
honest, your Hapless Blogger didn’t really know what to say to you in light of
everyone being in lockdown and completely uncertain of what was going to happen
to them.
However, in
recent weeks, as lockdown eases, we begin to emerge like little moles into the
sunlight (or perhaps sleepy dormice would be a better analogy, since I think
moles are blind…) anyhow, you get the idea. It seems that, as things are starting, just starting to get on the path to being back to normal, whatever the new normal may be, our thoughts are turning once more to travel. It is therefore appropriate that we reprise our adventures!
So, buckle
up, dear Readers, and let’s get going!
As restrictions
ease, we’re going to have a look at the latest travel trends for this year,
including some informative blog posts on the latest travel advice, including
what to wear and what to expect as we begin to spread our wings.
However, let’s
not forget what our MO is in the first place, and you’ll have read, hopefully,
dear Readers, our blog posts on Space travel, and I think you’ll all agree,
that we have a hell of a lot to talk about in terms of a certain Mr Musk!
Coming back
to earth, we’re going to look in more detail about Staycations, ideas of what
you can do at home, and, dare I say it, camping holidays. However, not camping as we know it, dear
Readers, but luxury camping holidays to such exotic locations as France and
Corsica: the idea being, driving rather
than flying. Half of you have probably
already been driven mad by children and grandchildren, so let’s look at the
likes of Euro Disney and child-friendly holidays that you will all (questionable)
enjoy. Perhaps that’s stretching it a
bit, but let’s face it, there’s nothing more educational than travel. You might even be treated to a re-appearance
by Jolly Hockey Sticks, the Hapless Blogger’s rather scathing mothership…
Since you’ll
need a holiday after all that parenting/babysitting we’re going to look at
beach clubs – down with the kids cool or emperor’s new clothes? Are beach clubs the reserve of TOWIE (a
British reality show for our European readers) or are they somewhere super cool
and chilled to hang out? Here we’ll
visit the hot spots of Spain, Mallorca and Corsica: for those who are new to our blog, we try and
keep our posts to personal experience, because we really believe that that is
the best way to describe things, and also unearths some funny stories along the
way.
Then, being
greedy little foodies, we’re going to eat our way round Europe…because why
not? We’re going to look at the best
foodie holidays and even learn to make pasta in Italy…how cool is that?
We’re also
going to look at great rail travel: from
the Flying Scotsman to the Orient Express as we explore different travel trends
through the ages to modern day. Was it
better back then? Was there more
glamour? Or is it better now?
Something
else we haven’t yet covered in our blog posts is cruising. Either love it or hate it, it’s an enormous industry
with even bigger ships. So we going to
look at options big and small: from the
biggest ships the size of small cities, to sailing your own vessel in
shark-infested waters! Well, possibly
not…
As ever, we
welcome all your comments, and we encourage you to check out our social media
to get your feedback. Please, please don’t
hesitate to ask any questions and leave your comments, because we love to hear
from you.
So for now,
dear Readers, welcome back to the land of travel and travel trends. Fasten your seatbelts and off we go!
